Fat/filler injection to eyelid area covering eyes possible? (Photo)

Laragetic2323Nov 23, 2023
I had a rare illness which caused me to lose a significant amount of adipose tissue throughout my face. One of the places I lost fat was the fat covering the top of my eye-lids, so the lid covering the eyes is much thinner and fragile and the veins are now visible. I know that this area is sensitive due to it literally covering the eyes. Is there anything that can be added here to replace volume in the lids, such as fat or filler?
